Another Bone-Swapping Event

Brad Fox takes us on a mind-bending exploration of meaning, matter, and plants, stemming from a 10-day trip that lasted a year, among Indigenous shamans in northeastern Peru.

In Another Bone-Swapping Event, Brad Fox  tells the story of a wild year spent stuck in the high jungles of Peru—living with a family of Quechua-speaking curanderos–traditional medicine practitioners—responsible for a 100-hectare stretch of jungle just outside of Tarapoto in northeastern of the country, four hours’ walk from the nearest dirt road. Following the practice and philosophy of the region’s visionary shaman Miguel Tapullimas, Fox takes readers on a labyrinthine tour of meaning and matter, navigating elementary metaphysics, the wavering ambiguity of phenomena, and the absurdities of the moment.


Through it all, the lush prose that made The Bathysphere Book so embraced turns this book into its own mind-altering experience because, with Brad Fox as our guide, we’re able to engage with mind-altering possibilities that we may never have considered before, all during peak Covid, when no one knew how our collective future might unfold.
